After updating to dev-lang/perl-5.26.1, unescaped left braces are treated as errors, which causes makeglossaries distributed with dev-tex/glossaries-4.12-r1 to fail with the error message: Unescaped left brace in regex is illegal here in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/\\\@input{ <-- HERE (.+)\.aux}/ at /usr/bin/makeglossaries line 634. This issues is fixed in the newest version of glossaries and a version bump would fix that bug.
maintainer: its probably helpful to mention some kind of perl thing in dependencies, or at least, mention perl in a comment so that future perl-targeting-test runs have a chance to pick this up early.
